High School Basketball Tips Off

Now that the last notes of Gridiron Echoes have faded away, it's time for basketball. The Berkner Rams boys basketball team has a growing reputation to live up to. Last season, they had an overall record of 24-8, were District 9-5A co-champions and had a deep run in the state tournament. There were about 250 Class 5A schools in Texas in 2013-2014. Berkner made it to the final sixteen. Sweet!

Now it's a new season, a new district, a new roster, and new challenges. After the jump, the Berkner Rams take on the Coppell Cowboys in a non-district game.

The Berkner Rams defeated the Coppell Cowboys 78-64 in the first home game of the season at the Rams' gym Tuesday night. Berkner's balanced offense had four players scoring in double digits. Berkner's Justin Price led all scorers with 18 points. It's a great time to be a Ram!
